I was searching to identify this crab that has been in my tank for years. He
is totally nocturanl. The tank has had missing inhabitants occationally and
I blame him. I would like to try to identify him. I found a picture at
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/swcrabidfaqs.htm with this question/response

Does anyone know what kind of crab this is?



Thanks,

Joel

I used a glass drinking glass with a little flake food wrapped up in
the bottom leaning against a rock that is his favorite night hangout.
Caught him on the first try.
Here is a better picture of him:
